A little chivalry doesn’t hurt women

Feminists are wrong to denounce chivalry, says Emily Esfahani Smith in the Atlantic. Chivalry is about being civil, courageous and well-mannered, she says, and such conduct allows for treating women as equals while also treating them as ladies.

I still open doors for the ladies, especially the very special lady in my life. I have always aimed to treat everyone as equals. It’s my way of showing respect. Good manners appear to be in increasingly short supply.
